Ugly In The Morning posted:That dril tweet has been adapted to so many stories. What was the weird obsession in the one you're thinking of? There was some post where someone spent a truly ludicrous amount of money on like anime figurines or some other preposterously dumb hobby and just for the life of them couldn't figure out how to stop their kids from being taken by CPS. They might also have been hoarders. I know it was here on the forums, or maybe I dreamed it, but I want to say that they might have turned their life around by the end of the saga in a refreshing change of pace. Either way the opening was so wildly dumb that they wanted to try to keep their intensely obvious spending problem going, but it was as absurd as the dril tweet in its presentation. I want to say it was thousands of dollars on some clearly unnecessary spending habit of a specific variety. Edit: I mean candles totally fits but it was something like World of Warcraft or limited edition import games or something.

The fact that her friend sold her out means her friend wasn't worth putting her job on the line for. Generally speaking, I don't think people should be allowed to keep the fact that they have a communicable disease from people that they are in contact with who may catch it. I do think people should have compassion for people that are HIV positive and not discriminate against them, but your right to privacy should end where another person's safety begins. therobit fucked around with this message at 05:11 on Jan 18, 2020 |

My girlfriend [24F] of six months just bought a $700 fursuit. She didn't tell me about the purchase beforehand. I [21M] didn't even know she was a furry until now. Am I the rear end in a top hat here for getting upset about this?quote:Of course I support her decision, but she still lives with her parents who are horrible to her - I think she should've prioritized getting out of the house before buying an expensive partial fursuit. Also $700 is a lot of money for us and I feel like I should've been consulted before a major purchase like this. Also also apparently she has been into furry stuff for a long time (since before we started dating) and is just now telling me. TL;DR girlfriend made a large purchase without talking to me. She also didn't tell me about being a part of a "fringe" community. Am I in the wrong? Edit: I know I'm wrong about the money part of this. It's her money and therefore her decision.

the only things i'm ever serious about are 1) the weird real life stories i tell (those are all true except for the ones which obviously aren't and 2) the fundamental equality of all life, except for the people i disagree with. like, i did get run out of seminary for not being islamophobic, i have lived in hella countries and got beat up by riot cops of multiple nationalities, my wife has weird pets and a baby, my mother used to make me climb into a well to fetch a ring she'd knowingly drop in as a punishment,

thing I've ever seen in a gamestore.
a bit about how they're already tax-paid items and that the state can't do that, etc. He knows about these things, "... because my accountant told me. He's helped me with all kinds of little things like that. Since I'm way below the poverty line I get all kinds of exemptions and such, especially because of my wife and kid."

Some people are really, really reluctant to disclose their HIV status even when its relevant. I had a patient who, when telling me their medical history, left out the fact they had AIDS. They also didn’t mention their AIDS medication when I asked what meds they were taking. They were absolutely covered in blood and actively bleeding at the time, so it would have been nice to know before I got a phone call from the hospital.

Am I out of line to ask my (48F) husband (50M) to stop looking at porn with teenagers and stop buying sex services online? Throwaway because this is embarassing. I (48F) recently discovered, because we recently started sharing one computer account, that my husband (50M) has been jerking off to teenagers. We have three daughters (26, 23, 19) and it's just appalling to me that a man like himself is masterbating to women younger than our own children! Some of these girls are only 18!!! I know he's less attracted to me than he used to be, he rarely ever starts sex and he often turns me down for sex saying it's just his age catching up to him or he's tired or stressed out. Yet he has plenty of energy to watch porn of girls and fantasize about loving them and he’s apparently buying their “services” with chats and videos and photos. I really just feel like giving up. I talked to my therapist about it at my last appointment and she recommended I talk to him about how uncomfortable I am with some of his porn habits and how it makes me feel. I did. I told him it makes me feel awful about myself and our marriage, I questioned why he needs such young women to look at, and could he please find something else and not interact with them? It went really bad. He accused me of being “pathologically insecure” and that it's "normal and healthy" for men to want to enjoy sexy young women and he can't help what age they are, he just looks for stuff that turns him on. He will not stop looking for what he likes or interacting with them and I need to "get over it". We do not have one of those "open" marriages I've read about on here, so doing sex stuff with other people is not something we agreed on or anything. When I said that, he told me I'm being stupid, controlling, and "online sex is not like real life". To make matters worse, I talked to my sister about all of this when we were out shopping this past weekend and she called me today saying she’s not comfortable being around my husband because she says he is “cheating with e-whores”. So am I unreasonable for asking him to find something else besides extremely young women and to stop buying services from them? He says so and I am not sure if I’m out of line on this. How can I keep talking about this with him when he's set in his stance? Should I let it go and try and move on/ignore it because it is just who he's attracted to and that's not conscious? tl;dr I don't know if I'm unreasonable to request my (48F) husband (50M) to stop looking at porn that includes teen women (of legal age) and to stop paying for sexual interactions when he says it's normal man thing and if I should try and move past it and how to do that or if I should keep trying to talk to him about it.

WIBTA For sending my mom to prison??quote:Back story, me (23) and my mom aren't very close, we never have been. She was pretty terrible my whole childhood and I grew up pretty much taking care of my sister (18). When I turned 18 I found out she had put a ton of stuff on my credit, basically ruining it. I've been working since then to get everything off, and when I have spoken to her about it, her excuse was "I was drunk, I don't remember that). She had several kinds of cable service, credit cards, even tried to buy a house in my name when I would've been 5 yrs old. Due to all of this and more, I haven't lived with her since 2014. Yesterday, a new thing showed up going into collections from 2017, right before I got married. I called the company and as always it was linked to her email and phone number, but my name. They told me the only way to have it removed was to file a police report. My sister thinks I'm selfish and a bad person if I file one.
